LOW-COST SELF-REHABILITATION

By Bob Walsh

At about 8:30 on Saturday the San Jose P.D. attempted a car stop one a woman driving a stolen car. Instead of stopping she took off. The cops did not pursue. A little less than one minute later a light pole jumped out in front of the woman and she drove into it at high speed, thereby self-rehabilitating. The now rehabilitated car thief's name has not yet been released, pending notification of next-of-kin.

I personally have a hard time getting too worked up about someone who would recklessly flee the cops to get out of a lousy stolen car beef. As far as I am concerned we traded one undesirable asshole for the price of a car. I can live with that.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Those jumping light poles are unforgiving. So are jumping trees.
